Aiden watched as Steven went on his way, feeling somewhat bad for him in that he didn't just give him the stones, but he wouldn't go against his new friends, not over a few stones for a stranger he met only moments ago. So with their little group alone to talk about what is next on their little plan Aiden listened to both Novis and Roxy over their takes on things before the Fire Stone was tossed to him. Catching it in his hands he looks the thing over before nodding and pocketing it. Truthfully he didn't know what to do with it or when he'd use it, but to have something like that for a rainy day would sure be handy.

At that stage Nov started to make his way off for the road and Aiden could share his sentiment. They had their fun at teh dig site, but now it was time to move on, and really Aiden wanted to find a Pokemon Center fast so he could say hello to his new friend... In fact he would have to name him pretty soon. Yet maybe that should wait for him to be ok so that the little Larvitar could have a say in his new name.

Just as Aiden was about to step off he felt something bump into his leg, glancing down he saw the adorable little Growlithe running into his ankle. "That is absolutely adorable." he said but before he could give the little guy some attention he ran off to go and run into Roxy's legs. It was then made known of what was bothering him and Nov declared it for all. Everybody was hungry! This was a prime opportunity for him to whip out his mess kit and make up an amazing meal for everybody! When Roxy spoke up to him about a break he had only one thing to say, "I think that is a wonderful idea! I can cook a wonderous meal for everybody!" His excitement at the thought of making a meal for his new friends showing clearly.

Zorex was in the same boat and he was... well the best way to describe it would be freaking out. He was running and jumping all around, crying and growling in joy. Even going so far as to tackle hug Lucina.

So with the plan made Aiden nodded and with Zorex back on his feet running circles around him the two started to make for the rest stop, Aiden already pulling out pots, pans, and the tools needed to start a fire as well as manage food in it.

“Yeah, let’s knock them down a peg or five!” Morgana hollered. The younger boys were cocky, but Morgana liked that. While initially, nervous when the boys approached her and Sage, that feeling quickly simmered down at the mention of a battle. With her competitive streak quickly coming full force, Morgana quickly turned to Luft the Drifloon.

“Ready, Luft?! It’s time for you to shine!” She said, motioning Luft towards the boys and ready to fight. Luft let out a loud "fwoon" cry in agreement. “GET READY TO EAT DIRT, DORKS!”

As everyone ate their food and talked about having a Multi Battle, a few bushes nearby rustled as a couple ofangry looking punks walked over to the campsite. They each had a few Pokeballs prominently displayed on their belts, so they were obviously trainers. The girl decided to speak up first as she took off her sunglasses to glare at the group huddled around the campfire. "I don't know who you punks think you are, but this is our turf. So you losers need to leave like right now."

The tough looking male followed up sneering at everyone. "Yeah, we've been camping here for the past 2 days. Ya can't just snatched our spot while we're off grabbin a bite to eat yo! It ain't cool man! You need to leave now!" The punks looked pretty angry, so reasoning with them was unlikely to work.

Route 9

@floodtalon@1Charak2@ZachChase@alexfangtalon

"...What?" Leo raised an eyebrow at the duo. Not only were they rude and infuriated, but they had the gall to stroll up to them and demand they got off their "turf". He scoffed at them. "One: I'd like to think that if you had actually been here we'd have seen some trace of you here. Two: you're out of your mind if you think we'd ever listen with those tones of yours. Three: act your age, you're both a bit old to be dressing in all black and failing to intimidate a group of kids, don't you think?" He rolled his eyes by the end of his drawn out rant and gestured Flabia in front of them.

"But we can settle this with a battle. We win, we stay. We lose, you get 'your'," he emphasized his words with huge air quotes, "turf back." Leo turned to his traveling companions.

"Anyone feel like helping me out? No pressure, Gira's in tip top shape."

The day seemed to pass quickly, and Jack felt as though Route 9 never ended. He had just finished spending the early part of the day chasing his Squirtle through the park, an idea of getting to train his Pokemon as well as spend a bit of time bonding with her. A scheme that ended up losing Squirtle through the woods. Jack was confident he would do well as a trainer, and never did he think he would have to visit other campsites asking if they had seen his Pokemon run by, let alone a Squirtle.

When Jack had finally found Squirtle, he was relieved. Though with the exception of him building a little bit of stamina, it seemed that running around had not proven to be effective training for Squirtle.

"It seems there aren't any shortcuts. If we're going to train like Professor Sycamore said, we are going to have to find other Pokemon to battle."

Squirtle tilted her head in reply. Jack realized that his Pokemon probably puts a lot of faith in him knowing what he is doing, and so before the day ended he had already made the decision to find a Pokemon to battle. Smiling at Squirtle, Jack returned her to his ball and he quickly searched his surroundings.

It had only been a few minutes searching until he heard a commotion start up near his location. He followed the noise of what sounded like an upset going on at a nearby campsite. Watching from a distance, Jack moved closer to the glow of their fire to see two parties arguing over who the area belonged to. A comment was made by one of the camping members about "dressing in black and failing to intimidate kids" that made Jack grin from ear to ear.

Then, a challenge to battle was declared, and Jack realised that both parties were all Pokemon Trainers. He had been unaware to the Pokeballs they all were carrying until the challenge had presented itself, and he overheard the challenger looking to the others for support. Not hesitating to follow up on his decision to find a Pokemon battle, Jack made his way to the campsite, calling out to the challenging trainer.

"Hey! If it's help you are looking for, then I'd be happy to join you."

Everyone else seemed to agree with the notion of taking a breather, especially with the only thing between them and the next town was another route and Zamak Ruins. One of them was a little more excited than the others, though, as Aiden was practically already prepared to make a meal as they walked away from the eternal dust of the dig site, Nier precariously running circles with Zorex around him. Nov couldn't help but laugh at the unrestricted energy of their Pokemon. It probably wasn't a very good combo to have two balls of hyperactivity around, but what can you do.

It was a very short trip before they stopped at the part of the route where a bunch of other trainers were hanging around. The rest area was little more than just a significantly wider part of the road combined with some benches and worn plains, but it was on the half-way point and was sheltered by the wind by the surrounding hills of desert-esque knolls. Nov had no idea what Aiden was gonna do for their on-road lunch, though. Maybe he had a lot more than they did, but all Nov had was the remnants of a cupboard raid and the last few bites of a sandwich.

The team found a good spot to set up with ease, and while Aiden was messing around with all his travel equipment, Novis found little else to do but sit down on the ground and throw a stick for Nier. The little dog didn't return it, but instead found enjoyment out of showing the twig to Zorex. "Need any help there, dude?" Nov called out to Aiden, lounging back onto his arms. "Don't got much else happening, so if you're gonna cook for us, we'll do what we can. Right, Rox?" He looked up at Roxy, just to make sure that there wasn't gonna an odd person out of work.

Just as it appeared they were heading for a fight, one of the other Eevees from before stepped out of their caves and managed to convince the leader to step down with a few little yelps. Lucy wasn't sure what it said to get it to stand down, but she was thankful for it. A battle so soon after the last was the last thing they needed. After a moment, the rowdy Eevee turned towards Zap and began yelping errr talking. The wait was long and awkward but once finished, Zap turned towards her and tried to explain but got caught in the moment and was slow to realize she didn't speak pokemon.

Well, it happens. Lucy and Zap can understand each other quite well, but not exactly the best at explaining things, especially when it comes to relaying messages or whatever from others. Zap than resorted to explaining charades style, using his motions and drawing in the dirt. Suffice to say, it was quite hilarious and Lucy had a hard time resisting the urge to laugh at loud, much to the Elekid's chagrin. It was a bit rough, but Lucy got the general idea of what this was about. But if the translation was spot on, the faces of the other Eevees said something else. Or at least they decided to mess with it after the fact

With the explaination done, all seemed to have concluded. It sounded like trouble, but a promise was a promise so they made to leave. That was when Ruby, Dan and Ven arrived at the cave. And if they were there that must mean that the Ursaring problem has been revolved, meaning it was all over now. At least, that's what Lucy decided. Though, it still felt like it concluded a little too easily. Giving Zap a reprieve from explaining, she turned towards them and began explaining the situation. However, with their backs now turned, two of the little Eevees took advantage of that fact and sprinted passed them.

By the time they noticed and turned around, the two little ones had a good sized lead. As the leader took off after them, Lucy and Zap shared a look before deciding to follow after them once more. She was careless, there was more to this than they originally thought but what exactly? "Well, let's find out." she said to no one in particular.

Sadie Hill


Location : Route 9



Sadie was happy everyone was getting along. She was decided to start setting up her tent while her Pokemon finished her meal. That was when two older teenagers walked up to the small group being rude and slightly threatening. The two claimed they had been camping in this specific spot for the past two days. Sadie didn't want to get into an argument, but she couldn't help but notice the lack of camping equipment around other than the belongings of the group of four.

Leo was the first to respond. He was much more 'rough' about the situation then Sadie would've been. Then when he challenged the two to a Pokemon battle Sadie got a little nervous. Sadie was fine with Pokemon battles but not this way.

Then another boy showed up and asked to join in on the battle. Sadie wasn't sure of what to do. She didn't want things to escalate to quickly, but she knew she had to help in some way. "If needed I can help to."

Interacting with: @Deos Morran / Aiden; @Sen / Novis
GM: @MechonRaptor



Roxy couldn't help but giggle as Aiden revealed his excitement for cooking, of all things. She was honestly very glad that they had someone who was (hopefully) a decent cook, seeing as she herself was utterly useless in that regard. Zorex seemed to be just as excited as Aiden; he was running in circles, and even gave Lucina a giant tackle-hug. The Riolu-startled at first-quickly reciprocated the hug, also looking forward to the prospect of food. Roxy giggled once again at the sight of Aiden already pulling out pots and the like before they'd even found a place to sit down. She couldn't blame him, though; food sounded like a godsend to her at this point.

It was a short trip to the rest site, with the trio finding a good spot easily. Aiden seemed to be setting everything up for them already, so Roxy went ahead and sat down next to Lucina. Lucina promptly sat down as well, eager to rest a bit after the intense triple battle they'd fought earlier. Speaking of, Roxy realized she should probably tend to the injuries that Lucina and her new teammate had sustained. Thankfully, she'd brought along some potions, as well as a brush and a comb to clean up their fur. Deciding that a bit of TLC was in order for her Pokémon, Roxy took out her Rockruff's Pokéball and sent her out.

Aela the Rockruff seemed to be calm now, a very different state than she had been in not that long ago. Pokéballs worked magic like that, Roxy mused as she gently petted her new friend's head. "Hey there. I'm Roxy, and this is Lucina," she said, gesturing toward her Riolu. "I know we kind of met under some not-so-nice circumstances, but I'm really glad to have you with me," she continued, keeping her voice soft. Lucina cautiously approached Aela, seeming curious about her new teammate. Aela-still injured from the fight-gave a friendly bark before wincing a bit and holding her paw up off the ground. "Here, let me heal that up for you," Roxy said as she pulled a Potion out of her bag.

At that moment, Novis spoke to her, causing Roxy to pause and look up at him. That's right, Aiden was doing a lot for them, wasn't he? Cooking for them was a huge favor, even if he was also cooking for himself. "Oh, yeah, of course! Aiden, if you need our help, let us know. In fact, I don't mind patching up your guys' Pokémon for you." Although, she only had five Potions, and she'd need six to take care of everyone's Pokémon. Though she was sure that she saw some Oran Berries somewhere around here...a few of those would work just as well. "After I patch up my Pokémon, we could go get some Oran Berries for you all. Save some money instead of having to buy more Potions, and maybe you could use them for what you're cooking, Aiden?"

As soon as Aiden reached the table of the Rest Site he was unloading his supplies. Setting a mean makeshift kitchen, he made sure to leave plenty of room for not only his friends, but also a large space to prepare the food that he was quickly taking out of his bag. Then once it appeared as if he had everything, he burst into a blur of movement. Slicing, dicing, chopping, tossing, and stewing. Yet before he could continue he'd need some help from his god buddy Zorex, "Hey Zorex, come on over here I need you buddy!"

Zorex let out a cheery cry and ran over to Aiden's leg, ready to help out however he could. But before Aiden could say what he needed both of his friends spoke up with offers to help. Now while Aiden didn't doubt their ability to cook, this was his field and he needed some space to craft up his art. Being said of course having more ingredients would NEVER hurt. So responding to them first he said, "Of course you guys can help if you want. Berries and some local herbs would make for great appetizers, desserts, and of course seasoning! BUt you'd better be quick! I'll be starting to cook up the courses soon!"

With that out of the way Aiden turned to Zorex and leaned over a bit to say, "Hey buddy, do me a favor and get a fire going." Then with his orders set Zorex ran over to a nearby grill stand and upon taking a quick puff of breath, let out a small Dragon Rage puff, sparking the fuel inside to making a heated grill that Aiden now had to work with.

Upon seeing the grill lit Aiden thanked his best friend and then started to move his prepared foods in his various pots and pans over to the fire. Suddenly sizzling, frying, and sparking could be heard as Aiden unleashed a potent wafting smell of delicious food that carried all around, making both Pokemon and Trainers with taste buds salivate over the wondrous smells.

Route 9



With the long struggle finished, York returned to reality to see that the two pokemon were on the ground and completely exhausted. He called out to Talonite, only to find him busy with a sandshrew, and turned his attention back towards the two pokemon before heading over to the cafe counter. When he returned, he had two plates of pokemon. One for Ren and One for the Dewpider. As exhausted as the Dewpider was, the moment it caught a whiff of it and came into view and instantly revived.

As soon as they were comfortable, York turned towards the Dewpider and asked if it wanted to join him. For a moment there was no response, then the Dewpider looked at the plate of food before looking back at York. At first the Dewpider wondered if it was a trap, but the smell of the food and the fact the trainer gave it food earlier, made it not care anymore. With drool forming at its lips, the Dewpider voiced its agreement to joining York before vanishing to it's plate, stuffing it's face with food.




After the Gastly managed to get the sand out of it's eyes, it gave the Sandshrew a nasty look only for it to realize it was already asleep. With the pokemon now immobile, Talonite threw the pokeball that he took out earlier and tossed it at the sleeping pokemon. It shook twice before finally stopping and capture being complete, causing a sigh of relief. Now that the 'battles' have concluded, they finally were able to enjoy their meal for once.

"Oh", the Dewpider after eating it's fill entered the Pokeball that York had pulled out. With a stream of light the Dewpider was added to his party.

"Well isn't that nice. I think I'll call you... Alastor. Al for short", the Froakie retorted, "why not just call it Al then?" though York ignored that, or so it seems. The Dewpider's data was sent to the Pokedex, along with it's skills and abilities.



After looking at it briefly he noticed Talonite was now walking towards him, with a rather pleased expression. Likely also to return to finishing his meal, which York having sat here all this time managed to finish in advance anyways.

"I guess you got yours too Tal? That's nice. Well, we've spent enough time eating. That fossil event at the university is soon, I don't wanna miss it", he mentioned, and suggested.






The Eevees ran fast, the group trailed behind the leader Eevee fairly well, but the two that sprinted far ahead were already at their destination. The group managed to catch up to watch the two Eevees leap out of a Sitrus Berry tree, those who spotted the big gash against it's bark would realize what was about to happen next. They heard a familiar thunderous roar as they turned to see an Ursaring barrelling towards them, everyone managed to jump out of the way as it charged at the two small Eevees with Sitrus Berries in their mouths as they leapt around the Ursaring. Those observant would know this was not the same Ursaring, but it looked like Ursaring and by extension Teddiursa were common in these parts.

For awhile it looked like the scene back in the path, but there were only two of them this time, meaning this experienced Ursaring had much less to worry about or draw it's attention. One of the two were about to take a heavy blow having it's movements properly read, but the leader Eevee leapt into the way of the attack, the two Eevees were in shock as their leader was sent flying with shrieks of agony before it struggled to get back up.

Taking advantage of the shock, the Ursaring raised it's claws poised to strike the two Eevee who were stunned by the sudden events.

Talonite

@Sho Minazuki@I-Am-X



Talonite picked up the Pokeball and checked it's stats quickly as he walked back towards York, jacket slung over his shoulder as it was still very wet. It had some good moves with a Defense Curl plus Rollout combo. That would definitely be useful depending ok which Gym they went to, his guess was it would be the Poison Type Gym or a long trip to the Ice Type Gym.

York called out to Talonite and he sighed, shaking his head as York once again called him Tal. [color=grey]"I thought I said to not call me Tal. Talon will do."[/color] Necro followed closely behind with a pleased smile on his face, licking what could be considered his lips as he thought about getting back to his interrupted meal.

Talonite sat down and then thought about what York said. He refrained from groaning as he realized he still hadn't eaten. [color=grey]"Definitely, let's go."[/color] Probably for the best, he wasn't feeling so hungry after that impromptu bath he had just taken. He returned Necro to his ball and they went off to the University.

Bearfull trouble
Interaction:@I-Am-X@Amaterasu@itano123
GM:@Sho Minazuki


They caught up and had something to see,all of them barely getting out the way. Danilo was greeted with a sight, once more the Ursaring was attempting to hit the eevees and they jumped all around him. Stolen fruit in their jaws, well the two didnt learn any lesson obviously. He was reluctant to jump in the action partially wondering whose side should he even take? He was leaning towards the troublemakers, but that would mean getting the angry bear pokemon angry at him. Danilo had enough for one day of that.

He felt Francis poke his head from under the hat, just in time to witness how one of the troublemakers made a mistake, yet it was saved by the leader eevee. The poor old pokemon took the hit and was sent flying. This wouldnt born well. "Francis, peck Ursaring into the eyes!" as he spoke the words he knew this was a really bad idea, but he couldnt not do it. The touching sacrifice of the old eevee for the sake of his children was simple too beautiful to let it be wasted. Dan couldnt allow it to be for nothing. Hoping Francis will manage to interrupt the bear attack.

Francis chipped once, in a chip that sounded a lot like Fine, idiot. Before he with full speed fly from under the hat and aimed to peck the bigger and stronger pokemon eyes. Maybe the female eevee would be impressed by his rescue? With that idea in his head he felt a lot braver.

After watching Roxy make amends with her Rockruff, two things suddenly occurred to Novis: both he and Nier had forgotten about the injuries they'd taken from that fight, and he also forgot that he still had an angry Drilbur with him. Both points should be dealt with, but Novis opted to deal with the former before anything else considering that both Roxy and Aiden suggested they go foraging while the food's getting started. Making a quick salve from the Oran Berries would be much cheaper than blowing a few potions. As much as Nov loved his Growlithe, they weren't exactly wealthy at the moment.

Since Aiden was a blur in the kitchen, there wasn't much time to get berries if they wanted them to be in the meal, so Nov jumped up from the ground and looked around the area. Since Nier was busy messing around with Zorex and hovering around whatever Aiden was doing, Novis motioned for Roxy to follow and started over towards a nearby group of bushes. "Let's see here..." He muttered, as he crouched in front of the shrubbery. It took a bit of digging through the groups of foliage before they could find anything edible.

"See anything else good around here, Rox?" Nov shrugged off his bag and started plucking off some berries from the bush. While it was incredibly easy to distinguish an Oran Berry, any herbs or anything might as well be grass to Novis, so he was hoping she'd know more about it. He hesitated to take anything he wasn't sure about, but Aiden would know what not to use, so Nov also took a handful of what probably wasn't a grass and bundled it up.

"So," Nov started, already bored trying to decide what to get and how much to take. "Mind if I ask why you're out here, doing this? Everyone has a reason, no matter how dumb." He smiled to himself, but he wasn't quite sure why.

The punks looked offended by Leo's outburst but before they could respond Jack burst out of the forest offering to help fight the two of them. Then Sadie offered to fight as well and the punk girl scoffed. "First come first serve girly, the two losers wanted to fight first so they get to fight first. Don't worry if you really want we can thrash you after we'really done with them." She said with a wicked smile plastered onto her face.

"Yeah, wait your turn girl!" The other punk added, following his girlfriend's lead. "Let's find somewhere better though, I don't want to wreck our camping spot."

After relocating to an empty clearing, the girl went first in bringing out her Pokemon. "Go Houndour, show these wimps who's boss!" Out of the Pokeball emerged a black hound with a white skull atop it's forehead and a red snout. "Go Snubbull!" Beside the Houndour was a much less threatening looking Pokemon, no matter how intimidating it tried to look.

As Jack brought out his Pokeball to return Squirtle, he looked out towards the two fleeing trainers and sighed. Jack felt that Route 9 was open to all trainers, and if he was being honest, he felt that they were more than welcome to stay. He wanted to be able to congratulate their efforts during that battle, as Jack believed they fought very well together. Though, in saying that, he felt he was very lucky that Squirtle didn't receive too much damage...

That's when Jack remembered he wasn't the only one standing in the clearing. Quickly, Jack turned to his battle partner, as well as the onlooking Trainers and smiled widely, promptly introducing himself. "That was an awesome battle. I hope you didn't mind that I stepped into your feud when I did, but I had been looking forward to my first battle for some time. My name is Jack, by the way... Jack Schreiber." Jack said happily. As he looked towards Leo, he admired his ability to battle, feeling that he was far more experienced than himself.

Roxy grinned as Aiden told them to hurry, seeing as she was pretty dang hungry at this point. And whatever Aiden was cooking smelled great already, so it was safe to say that her hopes were high. "Hey, um Aela?" she paused, as she was only testing the nickname. The Rockruff tilted her head, not used to the name, though not protesting either. "Could you hold on for just a second? I need to register you in my Pokedex," she continued before pulling out the device. She held it out toward Aela, watching as a blue circle spun around on the screen before a voice began to speak. "Rockruff, the Puppy Pokemon. Rockruff has an excellent sense of smell, and once it has smelled an odor, it doesn’t forget it. There are tales of these Pokémon getting separated from their Trainers, then using the faintest traces of their scent to track them for days until they are reunited. It's considered to be a good Pokémon for beginners because of its friendliness, but its disposition grows rougher as it grows up."

Roxy grinned widely as she put the Pokedex away, once again petting Aela's head. "Aela, could you stand to wait on the Potion? I'd like for you to help us find herbs and berries for Aiden." The Rockruff nodded, and Roxy quickly picked her up so she wouldn't have to walk on an injured leg. She stood up as Novis gestured for her to follow him, and the two walked over to a group of bushes, Roxy bringing Lucina along with her. It took them a little bit to find anything edible, but they managed to get a hold of some herbs. "See anything else good around here, Rox?" She looked over at him, before glancing back to the shrubbery. Roxy knew a few herbs from appearance, seeing as she had to learn some when she was in the Trainer's School, but her knowledge was still a bit limited. "Mhm! These are Mental Herbs that we're picking. But, um, don't feed them to your Pokemon...they're so bitter that they make them pretty irritable. She picked a few off the bush and put them into her bag, holding Aela with her other arm.

Roxy moved over a bit, plucking the few Oran Berries that remained on the bush. It seemed like wild Pokemon had been through and eaten a lot of them; Roxy hoped there was still enough for them. She held a couple of them out to Aela, who ate them surprisingly fast. "Feeling better now?" she asked, setting her Rockruff down. Aela barked excitedly, now capable of walking on her own. She stuck close to Roxy's side, sniffing the bush with curiosity. "If you find anything that smells good, let us know, okay? Lucina, you help out too." Lucina nodded, a determination evident on her face that was almost comical given the task at hand. Both Pokemon began sniffing around, occasionally gesturing toward a few berries and herbs that Roxy proceeded to pick from the bushes. She didn't know too many herbs off hand, so having Pokemon decide seemed to be a good idea.

"So..." Roxy paused and looked over at her friend, a curious expression on her face. "Mind if I ask why you're out here, doing this? Everyone has a reason, no matter how dumb." Then he smiled, giving Roxy cause to smile too. It was a question she'd asked herself as soon as she left Hoenn. In reality, there was a myriad of reasons, but for some reason Roxy felt unsure of how to answer. "Oh, well, I guess I just...want to prove that I can," she started. "My parents weren't too fond of the idea that I wanted to be a trainer. I'm doing this for them, to prove that I can handle myself. Besides, being pent up in one place for my whole life was getting on my nerves." She laughed at the last part, remembering her time back in Rustboro City. It was a bittersweet feeling, but she quickly shook the thought from her mind. In fact, the bittersweet emotion swimming through her just made her feel even worse than she had when they were in the excavation site. "What about you? Why're you doing all this?" she asked, a soft smile still on her face.

As Ruby and Berry ran deeper into the forest, they had coincidentally bumped into Danilo and Francis, who supposedly entered the forest before them. It was a short moment of pause however, as the two females continued to hurry towards the destination, the two males following behind. Upon arrival at what seemed to be like a small cave, the short girl caught a glimpse of Lucy, Zap and a couple of Eevees in front of them. Bingo, she would think to herself as the creepy, sinister aura around her intensified. The innocent-looking little girl neared them with a wide grin.

While Ruby was distracted by ill thoughts of what she wanted to do to the little troublemakers, her partner noticed that the electric Pokemon had just finished some sort of explanation to its master. The Sylveon attempted to inform her own master of this but before she could, the blue haired teen started to explain, whatever she could gather from the charade, to the other two who had just arrived. Ruby glared daggers at the two Eevees at the back of the elder one, assuming they were the ones who had caused the trouble. Before the strawberry blond girl could do anything, the two mischievous Eevees sprinted off, the whole party following after them. "Ehhh, do we have to keep running~?" Ruby simply pouted at this, but at the back of her mind, she impatiently cursed at the Eevees for causing yet another stir.

The moment Ruby and Berry arrived at the scene, the elder Eevee was slammed away by (another?) Ursaring. Blue eyes widened at the scenario she had entered, slightly gasping at the now injured Pokemon. Shifting her gaze down towards the other two Eevees, Ruby quickly figured out the reason for the vicious Pokemon's aggressive behavior. Berries in the Eevees' mouths. The teen was almost tempted to click her tongue out loud from annoyance but held it. It wasn't the most fitting reaction for an aspiring idol after all! Seeing the little ones in trouble, Ruby was tempted to remark, "Serves them right for the trouble they brought upon themselves!", but the Ursaring seemed to have intended on not letting them leave alive. Possibly.

"You better thank us later for saving you two~!" Ruby playfully winked as she took the advantage of Francis attacking the Ursaring's eyes and pointed forward, commanding her partner, "Berry, give him a taste of your Moonblast!" The Sylveon responded with a bark before leaping into the air with an image of a full rounded moon behind her. A pink shining light sparked from within her mouth as a beam of pink light aimed directly towards the Ursaring.

"I getcha," Nov laughed to himself. It wasn't that he hated where he's lived, or that he'd never left the town. He was born in Unova and had been out on trips with his uncle plenty of times. It was moreso the feeling of being stuck that he related to.

Of course, Roxy reciprocated the question to be fair.

Nov let out a small sigh as he took a step back from the berry bushes, having decided he had gathered enough for the time being. Closing up his backpack and slinging it back onto his shoulder, he motioned for Roxy to head back. The quicker the better, if Aiden wasn't kidding about quick prep time. As for the question... "I dunno, man. Probably doesn't make sense, but I kinda felt useless back home, y'know? Got in my head that this would make me something. Still not sure, now that we're out here, but I guess that's part of the adventure, huh?" He bit down on his tongue. "Gonna be weird headin' back to Danascus once we're done with everything else. At least it'll be good to see Major again..."

Once they were back at where Aiden was set-up, Nier perked up and ran over to Nov at the smell of the berries. Nov gave the dog a pat on the head before holding out his bag to Aiden. "We got what we could. You can make something got outta these, yeah?" Before Aiden could take any of the berries, Nov slipped one to Nier, and the Growlithe was ecstatic to receive the pre-dinner snack.
